When my eyes open again it takes me a few minutes to remember where I am. It's so weird waking up in a new place. A few strokes of morning sun light up the room. One of the streaks hits Sabrina perfectly.
It lands directly on her face highlighting her long lashes. She's still sleeping. Her blankets have turned into a pile and her teddy now remains next to the bed.
Suddenly I realize I'm staring again. What is it about her? Why am I so fascinated by a girl I've only just met?
I sigh as I turn to my alarm clock. "Nine thirty" it says. Perfect time to get up and start off the day. Every morning I start off by doing a little skin care and of course I pee.
The water feels cold splashing against my still warm face. After water comes face cream followed by my rose quarts roller. It's a really relaxing way to wake up. Now lets be real here, the only reason I'm now able to do this full routine is because I have nothing planned.
Usually I'm not much of a morning person. Which means I'm often running late so then it's just water and go. Not a bad way to get woken up either. Cold water does wonders.
So since I wasn't quite sure where to grab breakfast I saved myself an ice coffee and a bun to go. It's filled with lettuce, cucumber, ham, tomato, cheese and a tasty dressing.
While stuffing my face with it I notice that Sabrina and I both have a mini fridge under the desks. How did I not see that yesterday? If I had my ice coffee would actually be cold now.
Between eating breakfast and drinking coffee I quickly check the weather. The temperature should be around the same as yesterday. Which I'm not too thrilled about. Don't get me wrong I love a sunny day, it's just always a struggle cool off.
Though I did plan to explore the city today, I'm sure there will be at least one place with AC there.
"Mhh morning",
a sudden growl sounds followed by two arms raising in the air.
Sabrina is finally waking up. Meanwhile I've already finished my breakfast. The last bit of ice coffee pours into my mouth, still tasty even lukewarm.
"Morning",
just realized I didn't say it back.
"Got any plans today?",
Sabrina is now sitting up and stretches.
As soon as her arms reach for the sky her shirt crops up just a little higher, revealing her abs and her ribcage just a little. She's quite skinny. Is it noticeable when you hug her? Or will her skin cover it up just fine? What would it be like to be in her arms? Why do I wanna find out?
There I go again! What is happening to me?
"Enjoying the view?",
an eyebrow raises.
"Ooh, eh yeah... no...",
I stammer.
I'm such an idiot face palm.
"No you're not enjoying the view? Or no you don't have any plans?",
Sabrina lurks over at me with a side eye.
She's so forward and straight to the point.
It startles me a little. Meanwhile it's like my brain doesn't know how words work. There is still nothing coming out of me, only a nervous smile.
"Bro relax, I'm just messing with you",
Sabrina giggles.
Her giggle is like a summer breeze on a hot day; everything you need to feel better. When she laughs dimples become visible on both her cheeks. It's kind of really adorable.
